U.S.-France Joint Workshop: Biochronometry, Lyon, France, March 1997

该奖项将资助9名美国参与者参加1997年3月在法国里昂举行的美法生物计时学研讨会。本次研讨会的共同组织者是弗吉尼亚大学生物计时科学与技术主任Gene D. Block和法国国家医学科学研究所INSERM的Howard Cooper。研讨会的中心主题是考虑昼夜节律产生和控制的生理和分子机制。其目标是：提供一个论坛来讨论最近的科学成果；2)为美国和法国的研究人员提供一个机会，以确定共同的研究兴趣，并计划参与实验室之间的合作努力。

This award supports travel of 9 U.S. participants to a U.S.-France Workshop on Biochronometry to take place in Lyons, France, March 1997. The co-organizers of the this workshop are Gene D. Block of the University of Virginia and Director of the Science and Technology in Biological Timing and Howard Cooper of INSERM, the French National Institution for Research in Medical Sciences. The central theme of the workshop is consideration of the physiological and molecular mechanism underlying the generation and control of circadian rhythms. The objectives are to: provide a forum to discuss recent scientific results, and 2) crate an opportunity for U.S. and French investigators to identify common research interests and plan for collaborative efforts among participating laboratories.
